Recipes for Busy Parents- What’s for Dinner Wednesdays!

 Here we are, back at Wednesday! The day that you can find some Recipes for Busy Parents here with Ninja Mommers!

This week we are doing a yummy twist on one of our family favorites! We love the combination of Chicken and Broccoli as well as the fun, comfort and ease of a casserole! This Wednesday, we are putting all those things together for the ease of a Stove top Casserole! Yay! AND It’s healthier than the usual casserole I was making!
